When looking at receivers check what coding is used at the high end of your budget. There will be several running in the background, remember these, and you will have a couple of choices for your surround sound, probably a Dolby of some sort and maybe NEO 6, now go look at a lower priced model and do the same thing. Most, if not all, of these codes are being used by the cheaper model also but you might need to look for it in the specs. If that's the case buy the cheap one then go and get you a red dot for your pistols with the savings.
